jADE i am not bothered about what fanciers want regarding racing to any race points and enjoy there racing thats what its all about ? But why do you think inland races of 3 & 400 miles is to be in par with french races ? That is like having 2 grand nationals one from 4 3/4 miles and one at 2miles and the 2milers are equal ? gold cup liberation at midday at nantes ?

 

You obviously are bothered cos you make a big enough song and dance aboot it. I have NEVER said that 3-400 miles is on a par with channel racing but a national prize winner at 400 miles from Eastbourne is not to be scoffed at and a bird doing 37 miles per hour for 11 hours is certainly no sprinter

Ian do you really know what your saying what is national mean the whole country and by my calculations where ta hell da ye get a national race that take in the whole of the country from 200 miles, do you not understand the first drop in the y/b national doesent fly 200miles ? And as lewis said combine feds for inland races but dont call it a national / surly yer brain must tell you the birds winning a inland race is being compaired to french races , you should know that if you send them over the channel it is superior birds to the rolling in laughter janseens calling them a champion ? OMG ?

walter your spot on the nationals means the channel but unless they lib at first light or a lunch day libb the north is shut out how can any one expect more members to join from the north when they dont get a fair crack is it the fact the true distance men are from the north and they are feared in case the north wins it shows the true colours JMO

[Rooster J. Cogburn]

How many members from the North of Scotland are members of the SNFC ? I notice in Clermont they sent 77 birds and are we to take them into consideration when 1622 birds were sent ? . Too much emphasis is accorded to the North section when the huge bulk of fanciers are in the Central belt and they are the ones who should have priority consideration, After all they are the ones who make up the huge bulk of the SNFC.

When inland nationals are the subject of discussion we in the central belt are flying 300-400 miles which are not distance races as far as I am concerned. I joined the SNFC 50 years ago to fly from France not England and to be perfectly honest I am fed up with the bleating from North Section members complaining that they have to fly 100-150 miles more than we do. They have a tail wind in many races up the East coast where we in the West have 50-70 mile head winds to finish a race off. As regards the split in the Nationals if you dont know the real reason then I wont be spelling it out to you but it had absolutely nothing to do with loft location. As far as I am concerned I have only posted the truth of the matter and I am sure you know the old saying,Truth sometimes hurts.

OMG you cant even get them hame fa 20 miles peter pandy , theres a lot o andy pandy in your pedigree ?

[peter pandy]

Walter, I only restarted last year again with gift birds after a long break and as we should know it takes roughly three years to get established.

If I had retired to the South East coast I would have won a National by this time.

Brave words. If everyone in the west moved to Ayton someone would still be last. Think about it

[blucock]

In a months time is the time to look back at this thread and ask what measures mooted were put in place and what ones would be worth tabling next season??

 

It confuses me why a lot want to drop Newbury and go to Eastbourne/Maidstone/Ypres ... oh, wait they are all on the eastern tip of the country aren't they? I take that back

Wait till we see what the returns are like from Maidstone and then we will make the judgement

[Guest chad3646]

Well Im afraid in the modern pigeon game if you only have channel races in the programme the national will be dead and buried in ten years time....Why?? because the majority of todays fanciers are not interested in long distance racing. By the way I love long distance racing but I also see the bigger picture. If the national only had TWO race next year from Alencon and Tours how many entries do you think they would get and how many members would resign?

 

its not that they are not interested, they just dont have the pigeons that will do it so the easy way out is the inland nationals imo
